True Blood Season 2 Returns To High Ratings

After 8 months of holding our breath through threatened SAG strikes and wondering over the flamboyant Lafayette’s fate, HBO‘s True Blood had it’s second season premier on Sunday June 14, 2009. After waiting two more days to find out what the ratings numbers were, HBO today released the BIG BIG BIG number! True Blood 2.01 had 3.7 million viewers and was “the most watched HBO program since The Sopranos season finale on 6/10/07″!

Sunday’s 9:00 pm airing was up 157% in comparison to the series’ premiere and 51% in comparison to the first season finale which drew 2.4 million viewers. Including the 11:00 pm airing, True Blood had 5.1 million viewers, also the largest Sunday gross audience for the series.

Last year we heard that the show was renewed by the third episode, can we hope to hear THIS WEEK that there will be a season 3??? Stay tuned it’s going to be a WILD ride!

Here are the rest of the numbers from last season (Except Episode 11):

Was there any doubt that it would do so much better? I got a slow start with the show but once I did, I was completely hooked and one of the biggest advocates and will always support it. Bring it on, I will keep talking it up and bringing in new viewers.
